The Long Quiet

A person who happens to enjoy some oddities. May periodic post niche content. Please do not expect much.

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

@destiny_thememe At least there is a fashion based end-game.

Unlike a certain other game.

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

@LivingTombstone All Matt's must Die?

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

@Geezaws2 Is there potential for this to be decent in concept?

Yes. But, please understand that a practicality can easily look cool. There's a reason the character are not excessively pretty, because they aren't intended to be so.

This concept states otherwise.

@dihhrank @fflitzer Hello. I'm the OP.

I'm not complaining that they cannot fit in the aesthetic.

I'm complaining about that being PAID content. It looks like a candy-cane.

Destiny had shaders which were for for free that could replicate that same effect.

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

@get2knowmeplz Technically, cosmetic. It's a set of transmogs.

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

@get2knowmeplz Oh, the irony behind this skin.

They wanted to sell it, yet they EOS the game they wanted to have it cross over with.

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

@fflitzer @dihhrank Uncanny valley is the term I would describe it as.

It's too expressive compared to every other Marathon skin, it looks a bit too human for it's own good.

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

@MarathonGG_ @abearjoo @CoolRunnerCraig Still planning on branching out to other non-Marathon content?

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

@abearjoo 'Never playing an extraction shooter'.

That explains a lot doesn't it? They have no frame of reference to compare the game to.

Anyone who has only played on extraction shooter would consider that the best extraction shooter.

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

So. Please fire whoever designed this.

It's becoming increasingly apparent that Bungie created an art style that is difficult to consistent create content that fits that style. For example, the skin shown below.

So, please tell me who this is for. No one?

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

@TrashYeena @fflitzer Let's assume that these may be clothing items may be something found.

Then promptly realize that those make zero sense for any normal person to wear in-universe.

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

@Geezaws2 @PaulTassi @giancar73012035 Wonder how well this aged.

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

@NAPainter_ Huh. This is the first recorded instance of an OOB on Marathon. Well, that i've seen.

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

@SinningClair11 I mean, that could the intention of the last Canto. It may be a 're-run' where the story is drastically different due to knowing the future.

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

@nucalories Excluding the base designs?

Yes. Hell, most of the concept skins were amongst the most unoriginal designs I've ever seen. That or just didn't follow their own theme.

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

@MuItimach Have you considered you might have a problem?

Logically, the average shouldn't have an entirely filled out max level vault.

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

@Geezaws2 @clarityysix Assuming you have not read recent report.

They cannot legally lie, they can intentionally leave out details. They can frame them from a point of a time to appear in a positive manner.

Season 2 brought new people. Therefore Marathon has new users.

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

@TrashYeena @fflitzer Great question! Then why doesn't that also reflect into the gameplay aspect of Marathon?

They are set in stone about their functionality and how abilities work. They don't seem modified at all.

[The Long Quiet @The_Long_Quiet]

@Killerneto420 @klentins @fflitzer You can make unique skins, but you have make them appealing first.

These are not that. It's the idea of accessorizing all over again.

Why make a unique model then just accessorize an existing one then overcharge for it.

Very few would buy this.
